Fussiness, please help

My son born April 3rd has (within the last few days) been extra fussy. I’m not sure why, he cries and cries.. after he eats I can’t put him down for an extra hour he squirms a lot and whines.. he seems to have some sort of discomfort but I can’t figure out what exactly. Is this normal for a 3 week old? Anything I can do to help him? Please and thank you.

I had to get premiie nipples first because when he did start to get jacked up I figure it was the amount of air he is in taking. After P nipples we found “T” then the bottles went to 1 and 2 is where we are at now. Try to make sure you’re feeding the baby before the screaming of “in hungry” starts — the more they cry before feeding and during lead to too much air intake . We got an app called baby tracker. It allows us to put everything we do and when we d
